Found out about the John Twist Seminar last night at the MG Eastside meeting in Bellevue. Yes, last Saturday, September 9, was the MG club Tech Session. Was surprised to see that John Twist was going to be in Tacoma this coming Saturday. I believe this is sponsored by Brooklands and not the MG club. Brooklands works on all British cars, but mainly things MG.

MG Tune-up Seminar, Sat, Sep 16, Tacoma, WA. Matt Graham, owner of Brooklands British Car, will host this tune-up seminar. I will present a “Complete Tune-up” throughout the day in addition to answering as many questions as come up. Participants will take away a small pamphlet including tune-up charts for the MGs from 1946-1980 If you have ever wanted to tune your MG correctly, THIS is your opportunity to view the correct sequencing of all the steps. Plus, it’s great MG fellowship! The cost is $100/person for this one-day seminar. The seminar is limited to 25 participants. Matt has ten enthusiasts signed up now: three from Canada; six from around Seattle; and one from the East. Contact Matt directly to sign up: (253) 584-2033 or in WA State only (800) 244-4648 or via email: matt@brooklandsbritish.com. Visit Matt’s website: http://www.brooklandsbritish.com/

Yes there was a tech session last Saturday for the MGCCNWC on preparing your car for winter storage

John Twist's is a totally different tech session this Saturday the 16th. Call Matt at 253-584-2033 if you are interested in attending. The shop is in the Lakewood area. You would take the 84th St exit off I5

Just spoke with Matt. It seems John is planning on buying a boat to cruise to Alaska (at some point). Victoria would be a natural stop for him.

Just spoke with Mike Owen (MG Guru I've spoken of before) who has British specialty repair shop, and willing to host.

Still undecided for me for tomorrow, and not meaning to hijack thread, but who in Vancouver area or Vancouver Island might be interested?

Before John leaves Tacoma, I'm hoping to speak with him (he's expressed interest in past to me re. Victoria), would be nice to say I have serious interest from a bunch of folks, though I'm willing to bet most folks in local MG club (I don't belong to) have never heard of him or know his stature.
